Research Blues




Hello Parkies - ever been the subject of a research study?  I was one in a study to determine if coffee had a beneficial effect on PD. This first verse of a poem outlining the quirks of the study and its outcomes is to be found in the poem, "Research Blues" in my first book of poems, The Gate and Other Poems on a Life's Journey. (read all about the poem and the authors at "books.friesenpress.com")


Check out our wesite at "the gatepoetry.ca" where you will find the many booksellers who are carrying the book.  Locals note that the book is available at McNally Robinson. 

I'm in the laboratory 

research is necessary

Livin’ in a test tube

He's in the hall way

Looking for the payday

Man in a white coat

Pen out, pent up

Says he knows the reason

Coffee is in season
